No problem. Always glad to help fellow B5'ers.

Anyway, like said before, if you wish to know more about the car you can find out more based on the option code.
This is located in the spare tire space inside the trunk. There should be a sticker paper with random numbers and codes.

After you have those codes, check this out: https://www.audiforums.com/forum/sho...ode+spare+tire
It should tell you everything you have on the car.

I never driven a non-turbo one before so I wouldn't have anything to compare it to but over here the 2001.5 (not sure about the 2001) come stock with 170HP. Of course after the chip, power will increase to somewhere around 200.

Will be looking into the DIY for the hazard lights. Also, great to know about the various A4 'variants'.Surprisingly, this car came complete with most things except the damn lug nut bolt adaptor for the anti-theft wheel Now i'm convinced the car isn't turbo. It's a local purchase, and doesn't have 20v Turbo on the engine cover. But it actually feels quite zippy nonetheless. I'm now wondering how it feels driving a turbo version.

Again, thanks!
You should be able to see if there is a turbo or not if you know what to look for. I am sure somebody can provide a picture for you or you can take some pictures of your engine bay specifically the left side (from standing in front)

.
Finally found the sticker in one of the manuals, but the options shown seem to be undecipherable (well, i could decipher 3 or 4). Here's the whole list of options indicated. Hope somebody can point me to the right direction. Probably Asian models have different code from the ones bound for the Americas?

Optional equipment:

EOA 1KD 3FA FOA T5Z 1MR 7GO 3L3 1SA 4UE J1L OL2 3NZ C6N 1LZ 8GL 8JH 8GO 7KO 6XC 5MT OG2 U1A 9GO 4XO 3YO G1A 5SL 1AC 7XO 0YD X7P 8Z6 2K1 4K4 5RG 1BA 4R3 OJF 5M1 6RO 5D1 4GH

Well, that's about it. It's just funny that also on the same sticker, the VIN is indicated and model designation says A4 LIMOUSINE 1.8 Limousine?? Hmmmm...
